I am a native of New England, and have lived in NH, ME, VT. in several different places. My husband, Mike, and I have raised 3 kids in our 42 years of marriage. We now have 5 grandchildren. We live close to nature, love music, art, and good writing. We care about the state of the world, and are doing what we can by working with young people to help influence change, just by sharing of ourselves. We are not wealthy, yet love to share what we have.
